In 1880 the Republicans elect
ed 441 trustees, tbe Democrats 630
a ad there were 37 independents. In 184 tbe Republicans elected
46S, 49k Democrats 428 and there wWindesjenlaaco. In 1886 the Republicans elected S14, the Democrats 485, independent 13. Thus it will lie seen that the Sqpsbltcana have sained stcaflily at every election and now have a clear majority
4 all the trustees m the state.
lire storms of the past week
baveben move 'general Bail -oV atroctive than any visitation of the
character ior many years. From
aUrnrjjoofl of. the United States
come these reports of storms, with
great detraction ef iae and proper
ty. France and Spain "have ead Seen visited by these storms and lives destroyed. A few months of ueh casualitiet will leave but lit
tle material for cholera to feed on.
The town of Garden ky,
Kansas, u coming to the front in
good shape. It is situated a .the
frontier of the "Great American
Desert'' and among other enter
prises it is tmBSing a street rail?oadand a contract has recently
liwa let for the erection of an opera bouse to cost fifty thousand dollars. The Kansas EJitore and Publishers will meet there sometime soon,
when tbe town is expected to get considerable tree advertising.
The ritaatmn in the labor field
of the country has been materially
changed during the past week. Tbe
tear of violent outbursts and riots has been dissynated by the second sober sense ef labor iteeBf, in submitting its claims asd demands to tbe peaceful arbitratatoa of mala! concession. In some qaarters these till exists some apprehension of violence, bat on the whole a great imjnwement is to be noted ever (be ettKlilion -of things one week ago, and there is awneb aeason for indulging in he hope ithat before tbe month n&, all tate awevailing differences between labor and capital will reach an adjustment, on a basts satisfactory to all the interests involved.
nhe word "exhaustive" which was applied by the'-Editor last week totheftrflorrug-sooaHed discussion f tbeilabor'qpiestion is veryuufortamtte. ?The following could 'not claim to be more) than some disconnected facts and -thoughts the
just grievance oflabor. It xlaims
oaerit-beyond its sympathy fort th?aseniwbo'have too much, work and4oo little pay, and who re be-i ginning to stand together for larger liberty ankla hrgher life. (The laboringfmni'wf America has been
graciously complimented 'for lo!
these many years. He is tired ol compliments; he is asking for jus-
f-tiee. From his point of view we
inrast-concludethat
There is Something
the M&fter. 'The present industrial system teaches that the great mass of mankind are doomed to severe and perpetual toil for mere ntnistence. A few live pretty well, but millions toil all their lives for fond and clothing and shelter. Is this the way God intended it? Are the men rifibt who say that it always, has been so and always will be? -Here se same' facts : Street-car drivers work from 12 to 15 hours per day 4 tbe bakers of Brooklyn work sixteen hours day. You tee the
driven get "16 bears .pay for 12 'hours work." That's the way some men would put it in talking about the Eight Hour 'Movement. About 33r,C00 persons in New York City were helped by charity last year. That is about' one out of five. In this country one oat-ef every hundred lives on charity. It is ' the ; result of .some bad. system. Thousands of women are making shirts at 30c. per dozen. Thousands of men are working for less than $1 per day. Thousands of children, 10 and 11 years old, are turned out of school to help keep the -shelter over their, heads. '!)& -average incotrro'for wage workers
fin this country is about $350 a year. If
that-is" the average, tboutiand are working for math less. There are 10,000 operatives in Massachusetts living on 90c. a day. Thetr-families average four or five. This means 'About roe and a half cent a data for
food to each member of the family. Uow
would you like to try nst all ittre wear round? You 'would call it starvation wages, wouldn't you? Capital is mldifM, and unified, that the power of 500 millions of dollar acts by one mind. Nobody seemed alarmed at that. Bat when labor combines to resist it, the country seems paralyzed, and -the Knights of Labor.gflt'the'clanre. Combinedcapital has the power to oppres, autiiit' does oppress. Nobody will deny that. It goes into "a free market" under "fair competition" to buy labor as a commodity, like you would buy a machine. It says it ha the right to to pat'lhe 'laborer as cheap as possible. That's an eco-
!naraic"falsehood.
The wage-worker works under a master. The master determines what his work shall be, fixes the number of hours, furnishes the implements of labor, and determines the price to be paid. What does tbe wage-worker have to say about it ? .Nothing. St fe no answer to-sarr that .he has the
niberty to work, or not, as 'he pleases. That mean? be has the liberty to submit
or starve, xnat s no liberty. It is -no -answer tto t hat 'the laboring man -waste bis money in drink, and indulgence; or that be is vicious and prodigal and shiftless and idle. That is untrue. I
ought to call it a lie. It may be true of n i - . i .
some, am cucu a auuwawie waw ana a libel on the class. Under the wage system 500,000 men have come to idleness. Carlyle says enforced -idleness is the Englishman's hell. IFourlrandred thousand of them are fhere. The heat they feel is contagious, for tbe whole country is getting hot on the subject. They are willing to work but can find no work to do. Thousands of laborers live always with the wolf at the door. The wolfs head and shoulders may be in or they may be out, bnt his howl never ceases ia near-ears. The "wage eystem fo a failure. The freedom ef contract has become the freedom to oppress. The landlords of Sreland are howling at Gladstone -because lie proposes to make them surrender that Hong -vested rich. Xietnera)b0W.smd let -us thank
d thsttXadstone lives. Where is our sEAadstoneS vfto may Know how to restrain
boycotts, riots, incendiarism ana bloodshed upon -the one hand, anil to sight a wrong and do Justice upon tbe other. ILabor is wronged and calls for justice. Xv -erybody knows that. I Capital produces. Labor produces. They are partners in production. But capita! gets nearly all the profits. Labor has not received anything like its share of what.it has produced. I guess no one will denw-that. Prof. Hmlley says l e would raftier be a savage in the South 3m Islands than a -laborer in London. Prof. Kuxley knew what be was talking abetft, for be 'had seen both the savage and the laborer. Tbe laborer ia London is about the same as the laborer ia New York or Chicago. In a few years, under our present system, he will be of the identical genus. That is not the statement of an alarmist. An ybody can see that. What do the laboring men of America want? They ask steady worlc, fan- 'compensation, a voice an in the management -of'She'ir own industry, more leisure for rest and ewlture. Of Ml these they are deprived, and all these they ought to have. W hy not? Bverybody tells us that our country lias prospered wonderfully. Mr. Blaine shows that wealth has increased 214 per cent, while population has increased only CO per cent. But the prosperity of the nation does not depend upon its aggregate amount of wealth, "besfwpan the venality of distribution. That goes for an axiom. "Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey Where wealth accumulates and men decay." Tbe virtue in that is not in its poetry, ' but in its truth. Wealth has been accumu .latiag in tbis country in tbe hands of a tew.; and men have been decaying. There Isne dettbt about that. The conwoerce of Missouri and tbe southwest has boon paralyzed for a month. Chicago has been shalgeaby a social earthquake. Tbe coke region ef Pennsylvania, is given over to riot tend lame; the rainurs of Hocking Valley have suffered from, (amine; the people ol New York are left 4o walk to business, and a half mjtVina ' workmen are ready to move at the word fvoaamnad to make known the demands of hraor. What are we -going to do aboct it? After the police have clubbed the meb, and the militia have shot down the riotera, and the anarchists are hung, and-order is restored, is that all ? te-anmvhitand socialist will never gain the sympathy of
the iabonmc men or America, unless the
.honest laborer has a just quarrel against society. Organized lubor cannot be dan
gerous unless labor is suffering wrong. It it it suffering wron, would it not be well enough to know the uompluint? There is one way to have peace and only one. It is to do jititieu.
SA haridrod yettrs'ago in'ritneo 'the" rulers refused to da justice to thepoonlo who had heeir onnressud for centuries. 'The peo
ple Srono in a maddened fronzy.arid Franco ran rod-with blood. 'God save 'us -from the bloody days of '93. 'Thoy had ftbolished tho law of Jesus Christ in F-ranee-what little they had '6f it nnd tried another; plan. The new plan "wouldn't work. Forty years ago in Kngkrid tho - workingmen demanded the right of suffrage, and the common political righttf'wbich -we all enjoy in this -country. Ttoclr rioters were queued1 by the 'Iron Duke and his soldiers. But "English statesmen were afterwafds'wree enough to concede their detnatfthvand England escaped a French Revolution. That is the difference between the English and the French people, and English and Frenoh statesmanship. We talk much of our magnificent inheritance of liberty. How did we get it'? Not by ''keeping still" and being "pationt," But because our fathers knew their rights and were bravo enough to stand their ground. Many of them died in those conflicts, as did many of their oppressors. But to-day we enjoy tke great blessings if civil and religious liberty, thank God and the Holy 'Martyrs' 1 English history is full of msptratkm. Anglo Saxons don't stand oppressien well. Who -was to bhvme for the losses and the awful sorrow of wrr Civil War ? Tho man who objected to slavory, and W0uldn!t keep still about it? Or tbe man who refused to let the oppressed .go - free? -Lincoln reminded bt every drop f blood drawn with the lash bad to be paid by another drawn by tke sword. This is always the case; ifijustico must be atoned -for. -If anybody knows a case wbere-God b&s; failed to punish a nation that has defied His Uw let him speak. Jefferson said that he trembled for his country when he remorabereU that God is just. All the rest of us are trembling now, and for the samo reason. Jefferson was thinking of slavory; we are thinking of the labor question. If-aov one thinks that this -sounds needlessly alarming, 1 "would like to quote what the Christian Union says in its late issue on th subject. Tbe Christian Union is not a socialistic organ. It is edited by Dr. Lyman Abbott, a scholar and a statesman, who is one of tbe loaders of thought in this country. This is what he says : "Tfee Ch ristian 'Union does not circulate among'th'e' strikers. We wisb'ii did; wo should like to-'talk to -them. But itgoes to tbe men of capital and the men of culture. It goes to the men 'm -vefy 'village and town who form public opinion, who direct industrial energies; it goes to the mutress, not to the cook; 'to the counting-room, not to the bench. 'Our ttiiessagB is to our own-congregation. Fellow citizens; fellow-Christians I hear us. If this impending conflict between Capital and Labor is a conflict between greed and greed ; between uovetousness that if cultured and covetousness that is barbaric; between employers seeking to 'buy 'htbor iu the cheapest market, and laborers seeking to soil it in the dearest; between employers who recognize-no obligation to tboir neighbor but tc !pny bim current wages for their wurk, and employed who recognize no obligation to their neighbor but to give him 'Current work for their wages it can have but one issue. The daughters of the horsedeeoh -that cry al
ways, "Give, give!" ore df the same kin,
wheuier aressoa in suits or calicoes, in velvets or in rags. In such a conflict the Goths and Vandals will conquer; and a new and better civilization will be built on the ruins of the old and the unworthy. And the campaign will not be a long one. WeaHh'tns'noilunger armies to shoot fur it, and kings to rule for it. In America Labor is king ; Bismarck and Yon Hoi Ike are its servants. We can educate it, direct it, Christianize it Woe unto us if, ppgan ourselves, we leave it pagan, and simply fight it." Let us not be pagan. As a nation we've been trying lo get along on a worldly plan : No religion, no Sabbath, no God. It won't Work. &t
'least everybody don't seem to'lifco it first
rate, anu'tbings cont-ssom peaceicl. Venality, selflsbness, creed, avarice:
That'fl -what's the'matter. 'The political economy of STestts Christ, Sromulgated in the Sermon on the Mount the only solution to the problem. We need an infusion of tbe Golden Rule into our industrial system. Christianity is the only thing that succeeds. We must love our'neighbor as ourselves, even if he is our employe or employer. A large employer of labor said that, while be believed 'in -charity, yet "charity and business must be perpetually divorced," and 'that an employer had done his whole duty to 'bis Workmen when ho had paid them current Wages. That man is blind and irifidol. He invites destruction, and all like Him sire 'the enemies ef peace. Such a statement is a declaration of war. Such men can't stop running after a dollar long enough to think an hour about the evils inflicting society and the wrongs and sufferings of weir fellowmen. But when the cyclone comes they'll stop. 1 4tnow there is more than one side to this -question. I think tt is is the other side, the-aHe neglected by the attention and -sympathy of the men whose wealth and lu'fience rule our -country. Tho way to avoid trouble is to remove the source of the trouble, if we can find 'it. (Let us seek Ipeace -by .pigbteousnesa." S. A. W. Decoration Day Camamlttiees.

Tu'e'Oew organizations which are now confronting the Knights of
Labor are based upon a yKtem of
